Tuition fees for Government schools for 2024 were gazetted yesterday by Primary and Secondary Education Minister Torerayi Moyo.
Primary schools will range from US$5 a term for P3 rural schools, through US$10 a term for P2 schools in high density suburbs and US$20 a term for P1 low density suburban schools.
Although the tuition fees are set in US dollars, parents and guardians can pay in local currency at the exchange rate on the date of payment for Zimbabwean pupils.
For secondary schools, Statutory Instrument 240 of 2023, Education (Tuition and Boarding Fees) (Government Schools) (Amendment) Regulations, 2023 (No. 1), sets the tuition fees for S1 schools in low density suburbs at US$40 a term, for S2 schools in high density suburbs at US$20 a term, and for $3 schools in rural areas at US$10 a term.
Parents only pay a small fraction of the total costs, with the State picking up the salaries bill for teachers in Government schools and some other costs -The Herald
